all markets are collapsing because of the oil market collapse

i talked about that days ago grin grin grin grin

those collapses have led us to Kenya debts as investors are pulling out.

What are you saying son ? There's no connection between Kenya's loans (not debts, learn the difference) and oil market collapse. At the very least I expect you to know that the oil market collapse is a mega boon to us.

I can believe I have to explain this, you get better deals when you have influence in a nation. Things like tax breaks and incentives from the host nation goes a far way. That is why before a major investment in a country, the embassy helps to set the tone for how the investment should go before the company steps in to negotiate the terms.
And you are the one who lost touch with reality thinking DRC or Zambia would side with SA in trade.

It is just that Tanzania has nothing to offer Drc or Zambia
South Africa has more to offer economically

Look at this madman!
Do you know we fought against SA army in Angola?
Do you know we are the father of SADC? If TZ pulls out of SADC,the whole thing will collapse! More nations in SADC will choose TZ than SA in case stuff start going somehow.We are currently doing alot of things,just wait few years you will see what will happen to that SADC

Now you want to destroy SADC after destroying EAC? What next. Destroy AU?

Zambias largest importer is South Africa..... By far in fact, and they import twice as much from South Africa than China. DRCs largest importer is also South Africa and Malawis biggest importer is guess what....South Africa.

Also due to mutual trade agreements certain imports are much cheaper to get from South Africa than China. Not to mention the fdi that South Africa brings in across SADC.... You said SADC trades with SA because its the logical thing to do and you are 100% thus why you'd you choose Tanzania above South Africa? Since that's not logical at all.



What is it that they are importing that makes SA irreplaceable as a trade partner? What are they importing from South Africa that when push comes to shove they can't look to another nation for those products. Just because SA is a trading partner doesn't mean that SA is "the" trading partner.

High tech What high tech?? Name one "high tech" stuff that Zambia, Malawi and DRC can only get from South Africa and not from China through the port of Dar es salaam... Name one. Name one export item that Zambia, Malawi and DRC can only export to the world through South Africa and not through ports of Tanga, Dar es salaam, Mtwara, Maputo, Nacala or Beira. Name one.

It was Tz vs SA not SA vs China, duh. The mere fact that you have to bring in China to fight SA shows you that SA is way beyond your league. Was expecting you to tell me to show you what high tech stuff SA produces that Tz does not produce. I would have done so. Instead you are referring me to China.

In terms of import sources, 72% of Tanzania’s intra-Africa imports originated from South Africa and Kenya in 2017.
In 2018, 69% of Tanzania’s intra-Africa imports originated from South Africa and Kenya.
The top imports included iron & steel, sugar, motor vehicles and fertilisers.

This is a breakdown of what you import from SA.

Electrical, electronic equipment
Furniture, lighting signs, prefabricated buildings
Machinery, reactors, boilers
Toys, games, sports requisites
Pharmaceutical products
Iron or steel products

You are right, SA does have more to offer economically, but only a fool would say that Tanzania has nothing to offer. Tanzania is currently on an industrialization drive and with that most of the items that these countries are importing from South Africa will be imported from Tanzania. Items such as sugar, steel and iron together with fertilizers which are South Africa's major export to these countries will be available from Tanzania and if you refer to your elementary school geography you will see why they will trade with Tanzania.

Im shocked you think you can compete with SA outside of Tz borders when you cant even compete with them inside your borders. Your priorities are wrong. Start by beating them at home.

No it will take time a very long time for you to industrialize as you are saying to start selling those goods to Drc and Zambia and I doubt they will be waiting for you

My argument isn't Tanzania vs SA economically rather opposing the statement that SADC can't survive with out SA. I'm not an idiot, I read the reports and I understand the numbers. I know that we trade a lot with South Africa and Kenya and i know that Tanzania and SADC in general by a large percent does not have the industrial capacity to currently fully sustain herself and even when I'm high, stoned and wasted at the same time would never say that Tanzania can challenge SA economically any time soon.
My argument is that when you remove SA from SADC, SADC still has options.

We trade with South Africa because of the historical ties between SA and TZ, being a member of the same regional block and it is quicker to transport goods from South Africa (1 week max) than China (about a month). And that is the same case with SADC.

The problem with you guys is that you look at the data and think because of your trade volume SADC would suffer without SA, forgetting that SADC has other options rather than SA. It might be a bit costly in terms of time but it is still an option. That's why when I asked you to name one item that SA offers that we can't get from a trade partner such as China you diverted not to answer because you know that there is nothing made in SA that we can't get if from someone else.

pic 1 & 2- Matsirga Waterfalls situated in Kafanchan, Kaduna State, combines four different natural funnels.
Matsirga waterfalls are situated in Madakiya, close to Kafanchan, about 227 kilometers south of Kaduna, the water at Matsiriga waterfalls drops 30 meters into a gorge that has been supported by beautiful rocks. The fresh cool breeze around the area has something to offer to tourists.

At the point of impact with the river, the cascading showers of the fall create a rainbow-like mist that appears and disappears mysteriously.

The river formed by Matsirga Waterfalls increases with the rainy season, overflowing its banks. A natural rock shelter at the river bank forms a cover and relaxing place for picnicking. Like a half umbrella, it provides shade for tourists amidst the amazing continuous waterfall.

PIC 3- 4 -
Kajuru Castle is a luxury villa, built between the years 1981 and 1989, at Kajuru village in Kaduna State, Nigeria.[1] It was built by a German expatriate in Nigeria, living in Kaduna at the time.[2]

The castle is located at about 45 Km from Kaduna on a mountaintop in Kajuru village, Kaduna state. Built with 1 meter thick granite stone in a fanciful medieval-inspired Romanesque style, it is adorned with turrets, an armory and a dungeon.

The castle is privately owned, and has the capacity to contain 150 guests.

We export $707M while importing $400M from SA, how are our priorities wrong? We are developing better infrastructure and more industries so that we can export more to our neighbors, how are our priorities wrong?

SADC started when SA was under apartheid. SA joined latter by sending application letters.TZ never joined SADC, by we founded it.Remove TZ out of SADC,many members will pull out,and eventually the whole thing will collapse

Why? Apartheid wasn't the basis for the foundation of SADC wasn't it?

SACU is a small thing.Even TZ can still say,Do you know East African community which is headquartered in TZ?

Don't just say a largest trading partner without giving details on the issue.Even TZ is the largest trading partner. And you aren't the biggest investor in Angola or DRC where real money is.

Countries will align with TZ for different reasons.E.g,

1.Mauritius will choose TZ because of her investments in TZ
2.Syschelles will go TZ way for historical reasons of military cooperations
3.Comoro will go TZ way because of sharing language,culture and strong ties.Its TZ which went to do military stuff there!
4.Zambia will go TZ way because of geographic location
5.DRC will choose TZ.You know the reasons
6.Angola will choose TZ. I think you know how we fought with them against SA in apartheid time.Angola,TZ was joined by cubans,while SA was supported by USA.
7.Malawi,Mozambique, & Zimbabwe can go either way.SA can only manage to have those tiny nations like Swazi and Lesotho.

Most nations will go TZ side mainly due to historical ties.SA investments can be replaced and sourced somewhere else,but that strong historical ties which TZ has can't be sourced anywhere else.A trust which TZ is getting from those nation is too strong for any xenophobic guy to try break it.
